I can't turn on the date stamp for my nikon coolpix w100. I press settings, push the button for date stamp then it shows it's off but no matter what I try I can't get it to turn to on.

Whatever button you used to select the ‘date stamp’ option, on most digital cameras, it’s usually a second button to ‘select’ whether you want it on or off.

Nikon Coolpix L840 bridge camera doesn't power up. Will using a contact cleaner which leaves no residue be OK to try?

I had an issue where the camera would not turn on and if it did, then it would be rarely at all. I attempted to replace the batteries, removing memory card, cleaning for sand and dust, and practically everything that has been recommended online. I was able to fix the issue by holding the preview pictures button (I don’t know the actual name of it but it looks like a rectangle with a play button in the middle) which turned the camera on to view the pictures. Then, I went into menu > clicked over to go to settings > and went down until I found “reset all.” Afterwards, I tapped the button that takes the picture and all the sudden it was good as new. It will turn on and off as it did before the issue arose. I don’t know if I just got lucky or this will work for others, but I wanted to share.

Using Nikon coolpix as webcam

If this is possible, which I doubt, instructions will be found in the manual which accompanied the camera upon purchase.

As i was coming back home from work, i placed my nikon d60 camera in the bag but when i reached home, i tried to turn it on but the screen failed to display even a single word, any help please

All electronic cameras have an internal battery that you cannot change. When it goes bad, the camera stops working and must be sent in for repair.

My Nikon b500 Coolpix won't turn on just flashes green

It flashes green when it is basically on but in a sub mode that I'll call CHARGE MODE. If it is flashing that means the battery is charging. I suggest to let it continue to charge until it stops flashing and then remove the charger connection. When the camera is sitting all by itself with nothing connected you can then turn it on.

I want to use my Nikon D5000 to record a movie. Normally this worked very easily once I'd hit the Lv button and it ok.now it shows me a rec with a line through it. which setting should I be changing?

If you did not change any settings it may disable video when your battery or memory is low. Movies grab lots of power and memory. They also work the chips inside the camera hard so they get warm. Please check to make sure your battery is fully charged and your memory card has lots of room.

I want to download pictures from a Nikon Coolpix S8100 camera to my Lenovo Ideapad 320. I have plugged it into to the USB port and nothing appears on the laptop, although it indicated downloading.

A few thoughts: Unplug the USB cable from the computer but leave it plugged into the camera. Make sure you have the volume turned up on the laptop and plug the USB cable in. Did you hear the "baloop" sound Windows makes when a USB device is connected? If not the cable may be bad. Test it with another device if you can. If you are sure it is downloading and just can't find the photos do a Windows search for .jpg. You'll likely get lots of photos, see if any of those are from your current batch. Right click a current one and choose "properties" it will show you what folder the images are in.

I would like to delete a protected picture but I don't know where to find the AE-L/AF-L button on nikon D500

When viewing that photo just press the key shaped button again to unprotect it then the trashcan button to delete it. No need for the AE-L/AF-L button.

Nikon Coolpix L100 how to put date on

The date imprint feature is not available in all shooting modes. These include the Museum or Panorma mode. To turn on the feature if it is off, press the Menu button and then choose the Setup Menu. (The icon is a stylized wrench.) Go to the menu item Date Imprint and set this to Date or Date and Time. Note: the date (and time) will be easier to read if the Image Mode is set to PC screen (1024). Make sure that the date and time is correct in those menu areas. This information is in the manual for the CoolPix L100 on page 101 (page 113 of the PDF). Nikon has the manual available on the product page: https://www.nikonusa.com/en/nikon-products/product-archive/compact-digital-cameras/coolpix-l100.html . The current link to the manual is https://cdn-10.nikon-cdn.com/pdf/manuals/coolpix/L100EN.pdf . I hope this helps. Cindy Wells
